The Vatican announced it is was recalling Archbishop Giuseppe
Leanza after the release of the Cloyne Report into child abuse
“and in particular, the reactions that ensued.”

The Vatican is yet to officially respond to the Irish
government's criticism.

"The rape and torture of children were downplayed or 'managed' to
uphold instead the primacy of the institution, its power,
standing and 'reputation'," said Irish Prime
Minister Enda Kelly last week, following the release of the
Cloyne Report.
